HIGHLY-STABLE ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL

In this SelectScience Interview, Jutta Bulkescher, Microscopy Specialist at the Center for Protein Research/Danish Stem Cell Center, University of Copenhagen, describes the wide range of research conducted at her facility and explains how the Olympus cellVivo incubation system is enabling her to reliably perform stem cell analysis, whilst maintaining cells under strict physiological conditions.

	IMAGING STABILITY The frame architecture and focus drive design of the IX83 system offer enhanced rigidity that reduces the impact of vibration and temperature. It maintains desired positions along the X, Y, and Z axes to facilitate reliable time-lapse and multipoint imaging. When combined with the Olympus ultrasonic stage (IX3-SSU) and Z-drift compensator (IX3-ZDC2), the IX83 microscope can capture high-precision, multipoint time-lapse images that are aligned and in focus.

LIVE CELL IMAGING

The optional Olympus Silicone oil immersion objectives enable optimal imaging of living cells over time. The refractive index of silicone oil (ne≈1.40) is close to that of living tissue (ne≈1.38), enabling high-resolution observation deep inside living tissue with reduced spherical aberration caused by refractive index mismatch. Silicone oil does not dry out or harden, so there is no need to add more oil, making it ideal for extended time-lapse observations.

Left: Without TruSight / Right: With TruSight	RAPID DECONVOLUTION Olympus cellSens Dimension includes live 2D deblurring for live preview and acquisition, to enable better focusing on thick specimens. In addition, more advanced 3D deconvolution techniques are available to reassign out-of-focus light. The optional CI deconvolution solution employs a constrained iterative deconvolution algorithm to produce improved resolution, contrast, and dynamic range with industry-leading high speed by using GPU processing.
